  The company raised $3.5 million upfront through the sale of pre-funded warrants and accompanying Series E and F warrants, each to purchase up to 1.75 million ADSs, at a combined price of $1.99 per unit.

• Potential Additional Proceeds

  If all Series E and F warrants are exercised for cash at $2.00 per ADS, the company could receive an additional $7 million, though exercise is contingent on shareholder approval to increase authorized shares.

  Net proceeds will fund R&D, business growth, and working capital, supporting the planned U.S. launch of the Perfecta plant-based meat line.

• Placement Agent Compensation

  H.C. Wainwright received a 7.5% cash fee on gross proceeds, a $25,000 expense allowance, $50,000 in legal fees, and 122,500 placement agent warrants with a $2.50 exercise price.

Steakholder Foods closed a private placement that delivers $3.5 million upfront, with the potential for an additional $7 million if warrants are exercised. The deal includes pre-funded warrants and two series of ordinary warrants at $2.00 per ADS, a slight discount to the current $2.79 price. With a market cap of only $1.4 million, the company is securing critical funding to extend its runway for R&D and the U.S. launch of its Perfecta plant-based meat line. The placement agent, H.C. Wainwright, received 122,500 warrants at $2.50. This financing follows a series of dilutive capital raises and a recent reverse stock split, underscoring the company's urgent need for cash to sustain operations.
